“An economy consists of the labor, capital and land resources, the manufacturing, trade, distribution, and consumption of goods and services of a certain area. An economy may also be described as a spatially limited and social network where goods and services are exchanged according to demand and supply between participants by barter or a medium of exchange with a credit or debit value accepted within the network.

A given economy is the end result of a process that involves its technological evolution, history and social organization, as well as its geography, natural resource endowment, and ecology, as main factors. These factors give context, content, and set the conditions and parameters in which an economy functions. – from the current God Wikipedia.

We can see how the entire definition of economy does not correlate with the physical reality and how it actually functions. The last part is a fallacy because we all know how the conditions of a certain environment are not the factors that determine HOW economy functions in terms of how the ‘medium of exchange’ a.k.a. money and the current rules within the system function, meaning there is no physical correspondence to money and this tangible physical reality, simply because money is a make believe system.

Economy as it’s currently ‘lived’ is a make believe system that has a set of rules and ‘laws’ that have been designed to create profit and inequality through the capitalization of resources – this is placing value that can be augmented through time - which are made exclusive only to some through private property; this is then used as a tool/ ‘weapon’ – depends on the use you give it – to obtain yet more capital while obliging others through indirect means to work to multiply such capital through unequal pay. It is ‘indirect’ because it’s done by people that must resort to survive by doing such jobs due to the unequal opportunities, conditions and lack of actual choice as this has been a prefabricated, pre-laid unequal system backed up by nice sounding rules and laws that have never been applied as human rights. This is how we’ve all lived in – may I correct “lived” as merely surviving is certainly Not what Life should be.

Having said this, if we see what economists and other financial experts have to say about the state of the world is nothing else but crisis and hitting rock bottom today – even though they’re supposed to know it all in this field, they don’t dare to explain how it is that economy is a make believe system created by a few greedy humans that can only make rules that benefit them, while making the rest of the world believe that there are such ‘invisible forces’ as the ‘market forces’ that are apparently ‘autonomous’ and no one can reform and correct them to benefit all equally. It’s all a pretty well masked nonsense sugar coated as ‘high studies’ with pretentious words that are designed to create concepts that are not understood by all equally, hence suit their needs which are those of exclusivity, greed and elitism. That is certainly unacceptable yes, yet it is what we’re currently accepting as the ‘rules of the world’.

None of the current economic analysis will lead you to see how money as it currently exists is the problem itself, neither will any of them suggest to create an entire new system based on Equality.

An ‘Economic crisis’ can be ‘predicted’ because it is self created, it’s not an unknown phenomena, it is just part of a system that never considered Equality at all in the scheme of ‘economy’ as the actual concept that should be lived in this world. Yes, people can make lots of money out of wars and crisis due to the same joke that’s played around the tag of ‘crisis’ and other ‘financial adversities’ that are actually ways used to tantalize a society that is only seeing their ability to live in dignity diminished, while only a few continue to move around the strings that will cause such ‘crisis’ for their own benefit in the first place. ‘They’ might be evil, but we have done nothing yet to stop it either until now.

What we’re here to realize is how the accepted and allowed ‘human nature’ is what must be corrected to establish a system that supports all life equally, which is how it always should’ve been but was neglected due to such inherent desire for power, greed and control -amongst other human quirks that must be self corrected in a parallel mode.

There is no quick fix for this either, we’ve got a long road ahead in terms of education which must be focused on parents and children. I mean, no analyst or financial expert is looking at the human being as the cause of all the current problems in the world, they’re only looking at how the system has been created by human beings to suit their benefit, not yet looking at ‘human nature’ itself. So real economy should be considering all aspects that conform our reality, not only the ‘money’ aspect.

Equal money is not about ‘money’ or only giving money to all. It entails the reprogramming of human beings at an individual level to ensure we learn how to live as equals and never fuck with each other again – this means taking self responsibility for being part of this world which is the same one for any other person you can be aware of in this reality and just by that single fact, we’re all part of the same game that must be stopped within each one. To stop fighting and promoting vengeance, to stop promoting protests as a way of ‘change’ which will only bring more violence and no sustainable reforms within the system. This has been proven throughout history.

I can openly say that there is more common sense in one single blog/ vlog of a person advocating the Equal Money System than in any economist or ‘financial expert’ approach to the current situation, because the problem must be conducted and understood from the very cause of it which is: the human being.

Economy and the current monetary system are like ‘the spoon’ in the matrix movie, it is only part of the illusion that has perpetuated separation, abuse and slavery to maintain a very few on top that hold the precious and seemingly unattainable ‘knowledge’ that is only a make believe system designed to maim the ability to live in equality.

When you study economics, you get introduced to a concept called ‘opportunity cost’. The definition of ‘opportunity cost’ is:“The cost of an alternative that must be forgone in order to pursue a certain action. Put another way, the benefits you could have received by taking an alternative action.”For instance: “The opportunity cost of going to college is the […]

I’m sure everyone or most have heard of the words microeconomics and macroeconomics – where microeconomics looks at single factors/products/services and the effects of individual decisions (for instance what happens when I increase the price of the product I’m selling) and macroeconomics works with aggregates, looking at entire markets or the economy as a wh […]

In my previous post I shared an article by Belgian economist Paul De Grauwe who came to the conclusion that a basic income would only work if it were limited by giving it to those who need it, rather than providing it to everyone unconditionally.The article raised some eyebrows, but more importantly, generated cool discussion. The universal basic income conc […]
